This very rare old 1980 Honda XR500 Twin shock Enduro bike has recently been imported from Colorado North America where it has spent all its life. The air is thin, the climate & atmospheric conditions are far nicer than we struggle on with here in the UK & have helped this old girl keep her looks.

PLEASE CHECKOUT THE LARGE PHOTO’s…. As you can see this bike is not complete missing Front brake lever & cable, Speedometer cable, Tail light assy & exhaust baffles. It has stood a while – tyres are perished, both mud guards are broken. ENOUGH OF ALL THIS NEGATIVITY!!!......Please have a good look at the pictures because this bike has a lot to offer – what is there is very original.

Wheels are original with 23” front alloy rim, good hubs & brake plates. Forks & yokes look straight. Fuel tank has some dents but is squeaky clean inside. The exhaust system is original, again solid throughout – front to back with just surface rust on the headers. Seat is very good. Shox are damping nicely. Carburetor is free sliding off the twist grip. The engine is cosmetically clean for the nature of the beast, it turns over nicely off the kick starter & displays compression – we have had it coughing & spluttering & trying to start but the carb obviously needs cleaning.

This is your chance to own this fantastic piece of Honda Enduro motorcycling history. The bike is going to make such a rewarding restoration – something you can really get your teeth into & well worth investing your time & brass on.

We are listing this bike as a trade clearance item with a realistically low starting price & NO RESERVE.

Please call NEIL WILSON or MARK RUSHTON on 01782 861100 ext 241 or 244 who will be more than happy to answer any questions you have, and can facilitate viewing of this bike.
